Welcome to Erie


I think they call Erie the Mistake on the Lake. Well maybe that's Cleveland but it could apply. At least the shopping is good. Yesterday we opened up the Erie Tournament with a 3-1 loss to Hamilton. We had to come all the way down here to play a team just down the QEW.

Hamilton was is a Bantam A team and although our Storm team was able to skate with them and even outshot them 23-17, we were outclassed in several skill areas including passing and shooting. It was a tied game until late in the 3rd period when we game 2 quick goals and that was it. The only Storm goal was scored by Marley who crashed the net for a rebound to match her sister who scored a goal last weekend.

Next game is against North Pittsburgh at the cruel time of 7:10 am.
